Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I teach middle school Special Education students. My class is the Life Skills class for students with moderate to severe needs. I am also the activities coordinator for our school's PBIS program. Our Students R.O.A.R. each day by showing respect, taking ownership, acting safely, and being responsible.

With the help of generous donors, I would love to be able to provide our students with fun, engaging outdoor activities throughout this school year.

We are fortunate enough to live in a beautiful state that sees more sunshine than any other type of weather. Our students would greatly appreciate more activities to keep them busy during recess and lunch breaks.

Thank you and we truly appreciate your help.

My Project

Soccer, basketball, and volleyball are some of the most popular sports our students play during their breaks. I would love to surprise them with new equipment. Many of our students have never play badminton, and I would love to introduce new sports and activities to them.

Our students need fun and engaging break-time activities to participate in during their breaks and these items would greatly help us accomplish that.

Thank you so much for supporting our efforts in creating lifelong learners that are ready to R.O.A.R. We appreciate it.
